Established Agricultural Equipment Dealership and Repair Center

ND, US

Confidential opportunity to acquire an established agricultural equipment dealership and repair operation serving agricultural customers throughout the Upper Midwest. The company combines whole-goods equipment sales with recurring parts and service revenue, providing a balanced operating model that is less dependent on new-equipment transactions alone. Ownership has built a regional presence for fifteen years and is retiring. The dealership sells two tractor lines, plus short-line equipment, loaders, attachments, accessories, replacement parts, and support products. Its service department repairs tractors and farm machinery in the shop and through field service calls. Technicians inspect incoming equipment, determine required parts and repairs, complete work from formal work orders, and coordinate with office personnel for invoicing. The parts counter also serves customers needing components, accessories, and maintenance items without a repair appointment. No customer represents more than ten percent of revenue. The business has developed demand through its regional reputation, referrals, repeat service needs, parts sales, social media, and regional online listings. Agricultural cycles, weather, equipment availability, tariffs, and customer capital-spending decisions can affect the timing of tractor and equipment sales. The recurring service and parts segments provide important revenue and margin support during periods when whole-goods sales slow. Trailing-twelve-month revenue through August 2026 was approximately $2.18 million, compared with approximately $1.41 million in 2025. The most recent twelve-month period generated approximately $917,000 of gross profit, a gross margin of about 42 percent, and adjusted EBITDA of approximately $403,000 after deducting an estimated market-rate replacement operator expense. Service revenue exceeded $530,000, the highest period reviewed. Detailed financials will be available to qualified buyers after execution of a confidentiality agreement. The eight-person team includes five full-time and three part-time employees. The staff supports sales, parts, service, accounting, receivables, work orders, marketing, maintenance, and shop assistance. Both owners currently work full time. One owner leads sales and assists with parts and service, while the other manages accounting. Existing personnel are expected to remain with a new owner, although a buyer should plan to replace or absorb the owners' responsibilities following the transition. The business operates from an approximately 5,500-square-foot facility on a fenced commercial lot. The property includes a loading dock, overhead bridge crane, heated floors, air conditioning, mezzanine storage, and a separate storage building. The real estate is offered separately and may be purchased or leased from ownership. A buyer may purchase the operating location or lease. The sale is expected to include the dealership's furniture, computers, parts shelving, business equipment, shop tools, diagnostic equipment, pressure-washing and parts-cleaning systems, welding and torch equipment, splitting stands, specialty tools, forklifts, and a service vehicle equipped with an air compressor, hoist, and toolboxes. Personal tools belonging to the owners or technicians are excluded. New and used tractors, parts, attachments, and other inventory will be addressed through a closing inventory count and mutually acceptable transaction terms. The ideal buyer may be an agricultural equipment dealer, tractor dealership, rural equipment platform, parts and service operator, strategic acquirer, or experienced owner-operator. Manufacturer approval and the transfer or replacement of dealer agreements will require buyer diligence. The sellers are willing to provide transition assistance covering customer relationships, equipment sales, parts purchasing, service processes, accounting, and operations.

What to know about automotive and boat business acquisitions

GW

By George Wellmer

Cofounder & CEO

Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating automotive and boat business acquisitions.

Get the environmental exposure assessed before you do anything else

Gas stations, repair shops, and car washes handle fuel, solvents, and wastewater, and remediation can run six or seven figures. A Phase I, tank records, and permit history tell you whether you're buying a business or a cleanup.

Tour the equipment with someone who knows it

Lifts, wash tunnels, fuel systems, and lined tanks have finite lives and expensive replacements. Ask age, maintenance history, and what's been deferred.

Verify the location and lease carry the value

Much of an automotive business is its corner — traffic, access, and a transferable lease. A great shop on a short or non-assignable lease is a problem you inherit.

Separate steady service revenue from transaction sales

A repair shop with a loyal service base is worth more than a lot living on deal volume. Get the repeat-customer rate, not just the top line.

Check licensing, certifications, and brand or fuel-supply contracts

Dealer licenses, certified techs, and manufacturer or fuel-brand agreements may not transfer automatically. Confirm what passes and what you must re-earn.

Know how much rides on the owner and key techs

In smaller shops the owner is the master tech and the relationships. Identify who holds the skill and the customers and what retention looks like after close.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common buyer questions for this market.

Yes, especially service shops with steady cash flow — but environmental reports drive these deals. A failed Phase I can stop a loan cold, so have the environmental, equipment, and lease documentation ready early.
